MOTHER CHUCKER

A prominent Park Avenue lawyer was busted after tossing her bratty 10- and 12-year-old daughters out of her car in the middle of a Westchester street and driving off, authorities said yesterday.

Madlyn Primoff, 45, a partner at the white-shoe law firm Kaye Scholer, pleaded not guilty Monday to endangering a child and was released.

The judge issued a temporary order of protection, barring her from seeing her kids, who were not hurt in the incident.

Primoff was driving the kids home to the family’s $2 million spread in Scarsdale Sunday evening when they started acting up.

But instead of threatening to dump them at the side of the road and then biting her lip, Primoff actually went through with the unthinkable — dropping them off in downtown White Plains, three miles from home, and driving off, cops said.

It was unknown if either of the girls had their cellphones with them.

According to the police report, the 12-year-old managed to catch up with the car, and Primoff let her back in, but left the 10-year-old behind.

A good Samaritan found the girl, who was visibly upset about losing her mom, bought her an ice cream, and called cops.

Shortly afterward, Primoff called the Scarsdale police from home to report that her daughter was missing. Cops told her to go to the White Plains Police Headquarters, where she was arrested.

Her lawyer, Vincent Briccetti, would say only that his client is “a great mother connected with a great family.”

Her husband, Richard, at the door of the home yesterday evening, said, “We have daughters sleeping here. Why don’t you guys knock off for the night?”

Madlyn Primoff — who specializes in reorganizing troubled companies — graduated magna cum laude from Cornell University and got her law degree from Columbia.

Richard, 47, is an attorney for the Securities and Exchange Commission and got his law degree from Harvard.

Neighbors came to her defense.

“From the time I’ve known her, she has always been a fine mother,” said one local resident. With Post Wire Services
